800,000 views in 726 days

check out the post below

It’s been 1 year, 11 months and 25 days. It’s been less than 2 years and I’ve officially generated 800,000 views. 1 year ago, around this same time, I was getting ready to hit 250,000 views. I finally hit that number on July 26, 2015. That would mean, I’ve generated 550,000 views since then, which is insane. And where does the majority of my traffic comes from? Search Engines. As of July 2016, I’ve generated 524,943 views from Search Engines.

When it comes to being a blogger, you want your Search Engine traffic to be popping and mine has. It actually accounts for 65% of my traffic. So when people see all of these countries viewing my website, it’s because they are searching for keywords and finding my website. Over 190 different countries have found my website in less than 2 years. The United States being the most popping of them all with over a half a million views coming from their.

When I started this website, all I wanted to do was write about Brazil and that whole World Cup fiasco and then my website generated nearly 3,000 views in the first week and I was like word, lets see if I can generate 10,000 views. And then by the end of the summer of 2015, I did. And I just kept going. And going and going until I reached what I felt like was the end of the journey and hit 100,000 views.

But then WordPress added me into their Wordads program and I was finally starting to make money and I thought, I’ll just keep going. And then I hit 200,000 views and then when I hit 250,000 views, I had realized a new journey was born. I was gonna try and reach 1 million views. And I still don’t believe this is really going to happen even though, I’m really close right now. It still feels like miles away, but I realized this was my new goal.

I just didn’t realize last year when I hit 250,000 views that I would be this close, 1 year later. I really do feel like one day, when I’m in my middle to late 20s or even my early 30s, I’ll remember this time in my life as being a major point in my life. It’s only been less than 2 years, but I feel like I’ve had this blog for a life time.

This website means so much to me. This website changed everything. This website put going to college in perspective. This website made me self-aware. And it hasn’t even been 2 years yet. Still 6 days away from that anniversary. With that being said, here’s where I get the majority of my traffic, which I’ve low key already stated and all the countries.

16 views from Somalia is 10/10 crazy. Honestly, this is all crazy and I’m happy I still see it that way. I don’t take any of this for granted, I’ve worked hard for this and deserve all of this, but I know it can be gone in a second, so I understand. 800,000 views in 726 days. This really is the last, real, milestone. God willing, once I hit 900,000 views, I’ll just be telling myself, I’m ______ views away from 1 million, but hitting 800,000 views, I’m still miles away from the end goal.

It’s a happy-sad knowing that I’m 2 milestones away from being over. I should be happy, but hitting all of these milestones have been incredible and I’m going to miss it. As always though, thank you for clicking my website. Now with that being said, time to look toward to the future.

Next stop 900k.
